Schmidt’s name has been a mystery since the beginning of the Elizabeth Meriwether-created Fox comedy. In tonight’s episode, “San Diego,” the charismatic and overly confident Schmidt calls in his trusty friend Winston (Lamorne Morris) to tell him that it is time to finally launch his own brand that “will be his legacy.” But first, he wants something back.

“I’m going to start using my first name again,” Schmidt tells Winston, whose face drops and tells his friend that it is a “very bad idea.”

“I have no choice,” Schmidt shouts. “When I was born, my parents gave me a name. It was the name that I was called for most of my life – and I want my name back!” he exclaims as he slides a nameplate with the words Winston Schmidt on them.

After all this time, his full name is none other than Winston Saint-Marie Schmidt. So, now that the secret is out in the open, will Winston reconsider his own name? Who knows. We’ll have to wait and see.
